Our loot!

Fun, fun!! Last week we went down to the end of our development, right by the bus stop, and picked blackberries! We had the whole family down there, except Bailey, he was at a friends having dinner. Anyway, it was enjoyable and great family time! It was really prickly too! I never knew picking blackberries was so painful! We got stuck many times! I decided one of the things I was going to ask God when I go to heaven was why so many thorns and pricklies on the blackberries! :) So I made blackberry crisp, super yummy and blackberry freezer jam! I still have more blackberries and think I will make muffins.
